Package: postgresql-common Version: 74 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
"/etc/init.d/postgresql-7.4 stop" blocks indefinitely for me, making a clean system shutdown impossible without altering the script. The first time, this forced my to power-off my machine which could possibly lead to filesystem corruption. The problem seems to be that pg_ctl of postgresql-7.4 fails and /usr/bin/pg_ctlcluster does not give the slightest hint that something is wrong but simply blocks. If I comment out close STDOUT just before the pg_ctl call, the following appears on the console: /usr/lib/postgresql/7.4/bin/pg_ctl: line 298: expr: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden /usr/lib/postgresql/7.4/bin/pg_ctl: line 299: [: : integer expression expected /usr/lib/postgresql/7.4/bin/pg_ctl: line 307: sleep: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden (endlessly repeated) I'm not sure what's causing this - my default system shell /bin/sh is bash, as on most other Debian systems I guess, and the code looks like valid sh / bash script code to me. However, it's deadly that pg_ctlcluster does not notice that pg_ctl failed.
